In reply to Anxiety/panic attacks - a different diagnosis?, posted by highanxiety on December 1, 2002, at 8:42:49
*shrugs* I'm not sure if this is where you're heading, but I'm diagnosed with both Panic Disorder and as being Bi-Polar 1. I personally think the Doctor hit the nail on the head with both diagnoses.I'm still having trouble finding something to keep my Bi-Polarness (new words lol...) more stable. But for the panic disorder, I found that Clonazepam (Klonopin) has done wonders. If I start to feel really high strung or like I'm about to have a panic attack, just a really small dosage of that stuff during the day and I feel pretty good. Then another dose at night along with my other meds (currently just a MS) to get me to sleep.
But from the Clonazepam, I've never had any other symptoms like seizures or anything.
